""This marvelous experiment of a book is pure Kukathas: wise, humane, and thoughtful, offering a model of respectful teaching, an inspiring vision of the open society, and a scandalous amount of wordplay. It is instructive about political theory and politics, and suggestive about the place of both in the good life. Most of all, it models productive dialogue on some of the most divisive and polarizing issues today, while exploring the best versions of what there is to be said on many sides."" -- Jacob T. Levy, Tomlinson Professor of Political Theory and Professor of Political Science at McGill University, Canada. ""Resurrecting the Platonic tradition of dialogue, Kukathas engages one of the most urgent questions of our time—freedom of movement—with depth, nuance, and Socratic irony. Through sharp yet open-ended exchanges, this beautifully written book invites readers to confront their own assumptions and wrestle with the complexities of migration, identity, refugees, justice, the state, and the ideal of an open society. A much needed philosophical exercise in an age where only dogmas about immigration seem to surround us."" -- Lea Ypi, Professor of Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science, UK.
